Abbreveations

Hey all,
First I want to say hello to all Acura owners as I am new to my Acura TL and I love it. I have been reading through the forums for about a week now and I want to know what all of the abbreviations mean. I have been able to figure some out for myself, but some I am unable to figure out. Can you guys and girls help? Also, how would I know what I truly have in regards to my TL if all that I know is that it has a ground effects front and rear kit and that it has a spoiler. Everything else is factory. My first mod is going to be a CAI. I would also like to see more pics of everyone's cars as it makes me appreciate mine even more as they look awesome on the street.

WELCOME

Looks like your first mod is a decent mod.

Get more specific on which abbreviations you want to know about, then we can help you out.

Thanks for the hits. I was reffering to the one's that you guys use, such as CAI-cold air intake, 3G-3rd generation, and so on. Any and all responses are welcome.

Here's one I've been wondering about, TL-P. I know it means the non-S-Type version of the car but where does the P come from?

You guys missed the best one, WOT=wide open throttle.

TL-P is a TL premium, other wise known as the base model.
